∙ 11y agoCandida is present on skin and in the body at birth and throughout life.
Anyone of any age (including a 4 year old) can have a yeast infection and they are possible almost anywhere on the body.
The most common places are the mouth and genitals.
In children, yeast infections are typically called thrush.
The most common causes of thrush mouth are children placing dirty objects in their mouth which can cause an overload of bad bacteria and lead to the growth of the already present candida into a full blown infection with fungal growth.
The most common causes of a genital issue is when a child learns to wipe incorrectly (from back to front) and causes excess filth to be spread into areas they do not clean properly. Children often need to be constantly reminded to only wipe front to back.
